'''Super Mario Bros. 2''' ('''Super Mario USA''' in Japan, and '''Super Mario Advance''' on the Game Boy Advance) is a [[platform]] game by [[Nintendo]] for the [[NES]]. | |||
'''Super Mario | |||
The game did not begin life as a Super Mario Bros. title; it is a remake of the Japanese [[Famicom Disk System]] title ''Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic''. Nintendo's [[Super Mario Bros. 2 (Japan)|original sequel]] to [[Super Mario Bros.]] was released in Japan in [[1986]]. However, because of that game's extreme difficulty and its close similarity to the original game, Nintendo decided not to release it in the United States, instead releasing ''Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic'' with Mario characters. | |||

Because it was not originally a [[:Category:Mario|Mario]] title, this game differs greatly from the original Super Mario Bros. However, despite its status as the black sheep of the series, many elements from Super Mario Bros. 2 have become part of the series canon and the repertoire of recurring elements. The game also sold well in its own right and was critically acclaimed at the time. | |||
The Game Boy Advance version is largely identical to the [[Super Mario All-Stars]] version, with a sprinkling of new features such as hidden coins and a battle mode homage to the original [[Mario Bros.]] game (which was included in every Super Mario Advance title). | |||
